About this map

Whiting and the southern edge of Stevens Point define this landscape along the Wisconsin River. The geography is shaped by the river's path around Fields Island and its confluence with the Plover River, creating significant local impoundments such as McDill Pond and Springville Pond. These water bodies are central to the development of the northern half of the map, where residential streets like McDill Ave and Whiting Rd weave through the riverside communities.

Further south, the character of the terrain shifts toward more open land and agricultural drainage systems like Ditch Number One and Ditch Number Two. This area, including parts of Plover, shows a mix of suburban growth and rural history, documented through local landmarks like McDill Cem, Plover Cem, and the Maine Cem. Aviation interests are represented by the Runway Leasing Inc Number 2 Airport, while various tributaries such as Buena Vista Cr and Isherwood Lateral manage the local hydrology.
